Important Note:

Brakes are a safety critical part of a motor vehicle. Brake components should be installed by a competent mechanic in a professional manner. Any incorrect installation of brake components can cause a major safety problem or an accident. If you are not a competent and qualified mechanic you should not attempt to install these products, but should take the vehicle to a vehicle dealer or competent automotive mechanic for their installation.


Disc brake pads and rotors are wear items and as such, should be inspected regularly and replaced as necessary. Read More.

Utilizing the same split core symmetric molding process used by Original Equipment manufacturers, Centric's High Carbon Plain 125 Series Rotors dissipate heat efficiently and provide better stopping power especially in repeat stopping situations. Containing an advanced metallurgy containing proprietary Molybdenum and Chromium alloys, the rotors resist cracking during high performance use or repeat stop situations. The alloys also greatly reduce the pad squeal associated with higher friction, European-style brake pad compounds and increases the friction couple to improve brake performance and stopping power.

The Centric High Carbon Plain 125 Series Rotor features a double disc ground finish that virtually eliminates run out and any disc thickness variation (DTV) issues. The non-directional, double disc ground finish also provides improved rotor and pad break-in while a directional vane design improves airflow and cooling. Rotors are mill-balanced, as well, to ensure smooth operation regardless of speed.

Features

  • Premium black E-coating finish to combat corrosion on the rotor hat and between the cooling vanes
  • Center split castings for increased strength and stability
  • Superior cooling fin designs
  • Double disc ground finish
  • 100% fully machined finish including rotor hats
  • 100% inspected and mill-balanced for smooth operation regardless of speed
  • Lateral run out held to 0.002" or less
  • Meet or exceed rigidity quality specifications, including cooling vane designs

A center split casting increases strength and stability, but to further promote longevity, the rotors feature Centric's exclusive black E-coating finish. Engineered to withstand 400 hours of salt spray testing without corroding, it is applied on all non-friction surfaces to prevent premature rusting.

E-Coating Advantages

  • Uniform coating thickness over all areas including sharp corners, recesses and areas that are hard to reach with spray painting
  • Nontoxic and water-based paint material
  • Approximately 95% utilization of paint with no overspray, drip or drain losses
  • Complete paint coverage — no touchup of paint ever required

    Brakes emit a high pitched tone once they warm up. Same rotors with Akebono pads installed on previous brake job were quite as can be. Serves me right for trying to save a few bucks. Hoping noise goes away after they have had a chance to break in, but we'll see. 1,000 miles on them so far and the noise isn't getting any better.

    These rotors are on a vehicle that generally experiences harder braking. Having eaten cheap / poor steel rotors over and over, the high carbon rotors take much more abuse. They have lasted (right now at the current mileage) 2x longer than low end rotors. Would totally recommend these rotors, or any, for that matter, high carbon ones.

    I put these on my daughter s Jetta SE, so I have to trust them to perform. They do and she loves them. I, also, put a similar set-up on my 2010 Ford F 150 XLT SuperCrew and they are excellent.
